  • We gather requirements, budget, timelines, context, and objectives.

    ​

    When the project concerns a property being considered for purchase, we carry out pre-purchase property due diligence to verify compliance, constraints, risks and transformation potential.

  • We define the direction: space plan, guiding layout, atmosphere/materials, decision-making roadmap.

  • We develop alternative scenarios and solutions, testing them for function, light, material, and feasibility.

  • For existing homes and apartments, the process continues through renovation and interior design, from survey and concept to construction.

  • Documentation for building well (BIM when required) and support up to construction management and delivery.

For us, sustainability is a design choice: orientation, envelope, light, and materials work together.
We focus on measurable and constructible solutions, adapted to the climate and context of each intervention.

Sustainability

How we work

We work like a workshop: we transform goals and constraints into clear decisions, and accompany them from concept to implementation.
A phased process, with deliverables and checks, that scales from apartment to residential development.

Method

We work like a workshop: goals and constraints become clear decisions.
A phased process, with deliverables and checks, that takes the project from concept to construction site.

Research

Research is our operational tool: sketches and prototypes translate light and material into design choices.
It's how we hold together idea, detail and execution.

  • We analyze sun, wind, shading, and space usage to reduce loads through design and distribution.

  • Stratigraphy, thermal bridges, airtightness, and comfort: we aim for performance consistent with budget and maintenance.

  • Light is a system: openings, screens, and room depth for visual quality and glare control.

  • We select materials and finishes for durability, repairability, and supply chain, paying attention to local impact and availability.

  • We integrate passive strategies and efficient systems with consultants, for a balance between consumption, comfort, and management.

Recent works

Every project begins with a workshop: objectives, constraints, and choices become a clear path to completion. Here's a selection of works at various scales.

  • We design starting from people: habits, times, gestures and real needs.
    Space is born from listening before drawing.

  • Every project is a sequence of steps: entrance, waiting, opening, intimacy.
    Thresholds give order to experience and guide choices.

  • Light is not an effect: it is a design material.
    It makes time visible and creates atmosphere, orientation and rhythm.

  • Matter is behavior: weight, touch, durability, maintenance.
    We seek essential and achievable solutions, where the details unite the idea and the construction site.

  • Every intervention arises from the context: climate, scale, memory, rules.
    The project must belong to the place without imitating it.
